Title: Starbound, fuck yeah
Post by: Cable on July 05, 2013, 02:04:59 PM: So if you guys don't know, Starbound is going to be released this year. It could be easily compared to terraria, except this game is how terraria should have been.

A story within a sandbox

Starbound begins with you fleeing your homeworld in a space shuttle, just as it’s destroyed by an unknown enemy. With nothing to guide it, the escape pod shoots into space without direction, becoming hopelessly lost in a sea of stars. As luck would have it, the space shuttle touches down on a habitable planet and an adventure begins that will take you hurtling across the universe. Starbound contains both quests and story driven missions, buried inside its vast sandbox universe.

The game is still in development, but they post updates every day on their website about what they've accomplished for the day. (http://playstarbound.com/ (http://playstarbound.com/))
Here are some screen shots and stuff:

"You’ll be able to craft musical instruments including a trumpet, violin, guitar, piano and drum. Once you’ve got one of these instruments you’ll be able to hit various keyboard keys to play different notes. But more interestingly the instruments are able to read abc notation."

Terraria had very limited modding. Even if its just a clone, a reincarnation of a legitimately good game is plenty to look forward to.

Starbound's servers are hosted by Multiplay, so I highly doubt it will go down

Post by: Sabb on December 05, 2013, 01:40:06 PM: Does anyone know how to properly set up a server for this? I can't get it working and have no clue why... To my knowledge the port is forwarded correctly (21025), and I see the console when I launch the server check for port forwarding and then continue doing other shit, then waits a while and says "shutting down world" and obviously I can't connect to it. I feel like I'm probably just doing something stupid that I haven't noticed but does anyone have any idea why it's not working?

Title: Re: Starbound, fuck yeah
Post by: Monorail Cat on December 23, 2013, 10:29:57 PM: Same. I hate having to start all over... I know it's in beta, and that's what players are supposed to be doing, but I didn't buy it when I saw people playing it, just so I could too. I bought it a while ago (July, i think) with the Humble Bundle site. I'm probably going to wait until Stage II before I do anything else.
Title: Re: Starbound, fuck yeah
Post by: Astropilot on December 24, 2013, 05:48:31 PM: I think it would be a lot more fun to grind again with multiplayer. Is there going to be a server any time soon? Also I think I've read somewhere that this MAY be the last character wipe.

Post by: coolzeldad on January 02, 2014, 11:08:27 PM: Ya so I have been experimenting with hosting starbound for rNd, potentially 24/7 server.

I think it's feasible however at this time there are too many serverside bugs with lots of players that make it almost impossible to host without babysitting it.

When they fix some of the more serious issues I plan to open a server for everyone to derp on :D

Hmm, it requires a lot of resources so I need to run it on a better box I can't run 24/7 right now.

ip: random.teh-server.com

I'll host during weekends, friday through sunday PST. And maybe I'll host a poll regarding potential week times to host.

If anything happens while you're trying to play please let me know!

I'm reaching close to end-tier. The missions are pretty fun and the ore-finding technique is hella different. Although I miss the hunger bar, and food is useless now. I also dislike how they changed the temperature system, whereas it turned into "Get this upgrade to live here" instead of the bar.

Overall it's a whole new game.
